What the classes are
Elira's classes center on Pilates. Reformer classes appear across the week, in all-levels sessions and a beginner reformer foundations class. Mat-based work includes hot yoga and strength-focused classes that work the core, abs, glutes and the pelvic floor.
The classes lean toward strength and tone. Titles often name the focus, such as full body burn, strength and tone, or abs and glutes, and a few seasonal themed sessions appear as well.
How the week runs
Classes run from early morning to the evening. About a third of the classes fall in the morning, about a third at midday, and about a fifth in the evening, with a smaller share on weekends. Busy start times cluster around 9am, 11am, 1pm and 2pm.
Most sessions last 45 minutes. Elira's schedule also includes shorter sessions, and there is no pass system to buy into, so each class is booked on its own.
